The lucky amulet: power concentrated in a small amulet
An amulet (from the Latin word "amuletum") is an object offering magical protection. Some like to wear theirs clearly while others prefer to keep it soberly under their clothes... but that doesn't matter! This is not where the interest of a lucky amulet lies.
Regardless of its origin or the material in which it is forged, an amulet almost always plays the same role: that of spiritual protection. Sometimes confused with talismans or other types of jewelry, the generally round shape of amulets nevertheless makes them easily identifiable.
In reality, the power of amulets most of the time consists of diverting negative forces and energies that would try to reach us. Some speak of curses, others of the evil eye... All this will in reality depend enormously on the culture from which the lucky amulet comes.
Sometimes, a magical amulet will have the function of bringing us luck. It will then not repel any energy but, on the contrary, will function as a kind of good wave magnets. In this case, we are talking about a “lucky amulet”. Made of precious stones, crystals or gold, this type of jewelry is often a real work of jewelry in addition to being powerful.
From a layman's point of view, the effect may seem to be the same... but a discerning eye will be able to see that each lucky amulet works differently !
We have been forging this eye for years for you, and we are now making it available to you through this set of spiritual protection amulets.
Lucky amulets: a constant in history
Known as amulets or talismans, these particular jewels are supposed to be endowed with special powers capable of protecting us (us and our loved ones), bringing us success, luck or fortune. More than just pendants hung on necklaces, amulets make us lucky, repel bad luck and attract abundance.
Human beings are actually superstitious creatures by nature. This strange feeling that we all know of being confronted with the inexplicable and of not having any control over events fascinates us.
Lucky amulets thus come from mystical traditions, religions and customs among ancient folds. Each model of magical jewelry that you can find will therefore be unique to a very specific people and time.
In this sense, a lucky amulet is a kind of little sliver of history.
From the most primitive forms, such as pieces of bone and wood used by ancient shamans, to the most finely crafted ornaments, all seek to transmit spiritual values and ideas... but also other benefits. mysterious.
Many people around the world believe that amulets can ward off illness, ward off curses, protect our soul or our aura, etc.
Choosing the right jewelry to wear on your neck is therefore very important and could well influence the rest of your life...
Powerful magical tools
Jewelry has always been worn for reasons of style and aesthetics. Whether your style is bohemian, ethnic or glamorous: you will always find a piece of costume jewelry made for you. The golden highlights of rhinestones appeal to some, and more natural materials appeal to others.
Sometimes too, the reasons could be deeper! In fact, some lucky amulets are decorated with symbols with particular properties that can affect the life of the person wearing them.
Often a lucky talisman will be designed therefore with the idea of achieving a particular goal.
Each piece of jewelry pursues its own purpose and the vibration associated with it is unique. To put it simply, you will never come across two identical amulets.
Some, for example, need to be “activated” to release their full potential. (We can for example think of prayers, meditations or certain esoteric rituals.)
These talismans are in fact comparable to batteries that could charge and discharge. Their construction often allows them to connect to the energy of the person wearing them.
Others will function on their own, without the wearer having to do anything, simply by carrying them in their pocket or hanging them around their neck.
Either way, you will get more information in your quest for the lucky amulet made for you on our site.

The Nazar Boncuk: an amulet of choice against the evil eye
It exists in thousands of legends, myths and esoteric traditions around the world. As such, one of the most widespread ideas is very clearly that of the evil eye.
Concretely, it is a curse that would be cast by an evil, malicious or envious look thrown in our direction.
This type of spell can be scary, but fortunately there are solutions to protect yourself from it. .. and this often involves wearing lucky amulets!
The one that everyone recognizes as the most effective is the Nazar Boncuk amulet. (of which you will find many copies here )
Worn around the neck, hung on house walls or car mirrors, it is a very common symbol of protection in rural areas of Turkey and the Middle East.
Traditionally, this lucky talisman is composed of a large blue eye made of stone, glass or crystal.
There are other variants and other colors for this symbol of magical protection (which necessarily carry other meanings) but, being in the very minority, we are not going to focus on them here.
An amulet universally recognized for its astonishing powers, Nazar Boncuk is in fact popular throughout the Mediterranean, particularly in Greece where it is known as “mati”.
This is actually not surprising: the symbol of the eye which protects against curses is very old. Archaeologists have even found traces of it more than 5000 years old in Mesopotamia.
The eye of Horus plates: all the power of Egypt in a lucky amulet
The Eye of Horus is one of the most famous symbols of ancient Egypt. Sometimes called Oudjat, this magical symbol provides unparalleled protection to the wearer.
According to legend, the eye of the powerful god Horus was destroyed and then restored by the healing magic of Isis. For the ancient Egyptians, it could only be synonymous with a lucky charm of regeneration, rebirth and life in general.
In short, based on this myth, the Oudjat has become a sacred symbol of resurrection and healing.
It is therefore quite easy to understand what a lucky amulet of the Eye of Horus will bring us…
Throughout Egypt, the Ancients decorated their temples, houses, jewelry and ornaments with it. We were able to find models made of gold, silver, wood or even lapis lazuli. In fact, few Egyptian symbols have been as widely used as the Udjat.
In today's society, this lucky amulet is still used in a lot of places, especially in the Arab world.
Amulets of Thai monks: a centuries-old tradition
Just like the Buddhist elephant or the astrological sign medallion: most Thais believe that wearing a sacred Buddha amulet around their neck protects them from anything bad that could happen to them. While that might seem a bit of an exaggeration, we don't think they're necessarily wrong.
In fact, if you ask them what these talismans are to them, they will tell you that they are much more than just good luck amulets.
Already, monk amulets are a real business in Thailand. Tens of thousands of examples are sold each year, and the most popular models fetch several thousand dollars at auction.
Then, they are ritual and religious objects. These talismans are in fact inseparable from Buddhism practiced in Thailand.
Once we understand this, we understand why monk amulets are so common, and why the Thais are such a superstitious people.
To learn more about this, take a look at the Thai lucky charms that we have collected here.
In short, made of stone, metal or (more rarely) terracotta, the effects of these jewels differ greatly from each other. Some will be used to bring us luck, and others to protect us from spells and attacks of all kinds.
To be truly effective, a Thai monk's amulet must normally be blessed by a monk (hence its name) during secret rituals practiced inside temples closed to the public.
